can i flash Stock 1.1.0 Clockwork Recovery Image Updated 2/13 from the developer side with my EXT4 Compatible Bootable Clockwork SD Card to get back to complete stock nook rom.
You should use CWR 3.0.5... it will format the partitions EXT3 which is normal for Eclaire (stock).

I was wondering if it was possible to create an ext3 sd partition with Clockwork Recovery, as amon does not install right for me as evidenced by this thread.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=841360&page=2
I used to use pre-rooted BN 1.1.0 and can use CWR without problem. Now I installed a stock BN 1.1.0 and rooted it with auto-nooter 3.0.0 and once I reboot into CWR to flash 1.1GHz OC kernel I can not get out anymore. It will just reboot into CWR again and again. I tried to flash stock kernel but no luck.
Any suggestions?
Thanks!
Create a Monster Root pack bootable CWR SD (from monster root pack thread). Then find CW-Removal.zip in this forum and copy to the sdcard. Boot the SD, which will load CWR from the bootable SD and flash the CW-removal.zip file. This will restore stock recovery on the device and make it boot again.
I couldn't get CWR to work from the device with 1.1.0. So I just use the bootable SD instead. Hope this helps!

So I rooted my Nook with autonooter 3.0.0, I followed all the directions entirely. It worked perfectly, I liked it but wanted to try other stuff. Then I successfully installed Honeycomb v4 on my Nook, I tried it out, but didn't like it, I'll wait until later as its more developed. Then I installed CM7 on my Nook. Its nice, but for some reason a lot of my important apps force close on me. So I thought would just return to stock and then go to autonooter. I tried the method found here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=914690
So I don't know if it matters, but I remember formatting boot, system, and data in CWR during the installations of Honeycomb, and also formatting the system and data in CM7 and also in trying to return to stock. So in each of the installations I followed all of the directions perfectly.
Ok, so here is my problem. After I try to return to stock, I try to boot up my Nook, it goes to the Touch the Future of Reading screen, then to the screen with the 'n' on it and the adobe message at the bottom comes up. However, it will not go passed this. It hangs and I cannot fix it. I have tried the 8 reboots which does reinstall the original firmware, however when its complete and reboots it does not boot, it does the same thing I just described.
Please help, if I have left out any information just ask and I will fill in the details.
There is a recovery zip on the development forum. Boot into cwr and flash... that should do the trick... hopefully.

Doesnt he need to format the partions with a ext3 cwr before flashing or will the recovery do that?

Yeah, I'm beginning to think I do have to fix up the partitions because everything I do is just giving me more hang.
Can anyone help with that?
Get CWR 3.0.5...
Write the SD card image to your uSD...
Copy repartition-boot-with-stock.zip to the root of the SD card...
Decide if you want to restore to 1.0.0 or 1.0.1 and copy the appropriate nook-complete-restore-1.0.x.zip to root of the SD card....
Boot off the SD card in your NC
since you say you have formatted boot... shouldn't ever need to do that btw...
Format Boot... System... Data... and cache...
Install the repartition boot zip file... then the complete system restore from SD card.
yeah.. once you reformat with CWR 3.0.0.5 you should be able to do the re-partition boot flash and then restore the image.
I just got back that way as well.

Thanks for all the help! I'm going to try this now. And I'm guessing it is, but will it be ok to use CWR 3.0.0.6 and boot with that from the SD card?
It needs to be CWR 3.0.0.5 in my experience.
3.0.0.6 supports EXT4 partitions and won't format them back to EXT3.. as long as they are EXT4, the nook will not boot into the stock rom.
The stock kernel doesn't support EXT4.. so it hangs just before it loads the system files..
If you wipe the partitions using 3.0.0.5 and install the full recovery image for 1.01 you should be a-ok.
Alright I got it! You guys are the best! Thanks for the help! Now I just need to re-root and I'm good to go! Thanks again!
Oh and yeah I used 3.0.0.5, that may have been the problem all along because I kept trying to fix with 3.0.0.6. Thanks!
Having successfully been using Froyo for a while, I decided to try the CM7 RC. After the flashing the ROM the Nook got stuck in a boot loop, after several attempts, I tried to go back to Froyo. Formatted the System and data under mounts and storage then flashed froyo, now stuck at the Nook N. Repartitioned the boot partition and tried to restore to stock no luck any help would be much appreciated.
- Stuck at Nookie 'N'
A couple questions first; did you reformat your eMMC to EXT-4 by formating system, data, and cache with CWM 3.0.1.0.? Which is required before flashing CM7. If you did then you cannot go back to froyo without reverting back to EXT-3, by formating system/data/cache with CWM 3.0.0.5.
You also may have a messed up boot partition, try flashing one of dalingrin's kernels for froyo or CM7, whichever one you're trying to recover. they are located here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=925451
That's about all I can say without knowing if you went to EXT-4
This will fix your problem....
Make a bootable SD immage of CWR. Burn it with a tool of your choice.
After that is done: Open up the sd card and toss the ROM that you want to flash in the root folder. (Hell, or make folders, thats what I do)
Next insert the SD card and restart your nook. You will have booted into CWR where you can then flash the Rom you stored on the SD card.
EDIT: Here is the link of the CWR images: http://legacyschool.us.to/nookdev/clockwork/0.7/
Thanks for the quick response, I am currently using CWM 3.0.0.6, I tried your suggestion of using dalingrin's kernel, no luck. One thing I failed to mention is when I attempted to flash froyo it aborted every time.
btw colbur87 I am using a bootable uSD card...

Try getting the 3.0.5.0 CWM from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=922870
Then flash it to your uSD card.
Boot to said uSD card
Format /data, /system, /cache
Flash Froyo.zip
Clear Davik-cache
reboot
install OC kernel
clear Dalvik-cache
reboot
I think when you formated with 3.0.6.0 you upgraded your eMMC to EXT-4, and froyo can only run on EXT-3. I may be wrong, but this should set you back up with froyo anyways.
If you're still stuck at the 'n' screen after this, then your /boot partition may be corupted, and someone might have to supply you with a proper one.
This helped a lot it turned out to be the incompatible file systems EXT-3 EXT-4.
I was able to restore my nook to stock. Now I will start over, again thanks a lot....
I am running rooted 1.1, and want to create a backup before I take the plunge on CM7. I reboot using Clockwork Recovery via ROM Manager, and access the backup menu.
This is what always happens:
Reboot into recovery
Choose Backup and Restore
Choose Backup
......
ClockworkMod Recovery v3.0.1.0
SD Card space free: 949MB
Backing up boot...
Backing up system...
Can't mount /system!
I then go back out and choose 'Mounts and Storage' to try to manually mount the volumes. From here I can see that /cache and /sdcard is mounted, but I cannot mount /system or /data.
Any ideas??? I really want to back up my my stock unit before trying CM7...

1.1 functions with clockwork 3.0.0.5. I don't think you will get a backup with 3.0.1.0 because it writes to a different partition. You may need to burn 0.5 to an sd card or revert to 0.5 do your backup and then reload 1.0.

The oldest version I could find in ROM Manager was 3.0.0.6. I reverted to that version, but it did not work any better. Now when I tell it to reboot, it will only reboot back into recovery, I cannot get it to reboot back into Eclair. I never had a problem rebooting out of recovery mode on 3.0.1.0. What the heck is going on? I did make sure no SD cards were in during the reboots.
I did go download an offline copy of 3.0.0.5 to try from SD, but I need to get back into Eclair so I can update my Nook to use the older CWR via ADB...
Here's your answer!
Hey, I had this exact problem. Here is the solution:
1) Download the .zip update for ClockworkMod 3.0.1.0 and put it on your SD
2) Flash CWM from ROM Manager (NOT the "old" one, just the regular one)
3) Reboot to CWM
4) From CWM, install the .zip CWM update file
Reboot to android, then reboot to recovery (using ROM Manager or whatever other means you like, doesn't matter) and you'll be able to do a backup.
Hope this helps!

i found an sd bootable versionof CWM, it as 3.0.0.5, but said it was 1.1 compatable. I booted off SD, and this copy worked. I backed up, formatted, and flashed the new ROM. However, as soon as I removed the SD and rebooted, it took me right back to the CWM that is on my eMMC! What gives???
I still cannot reboot back into android
